This book was very enjoyable. The obsession was intense and I totally empathized with Clarke.

What I didn’t like was we still didn’t know how Alison died- it would had been nice to see that.

Somehow this super self involved girl, Alison, managed to emotionally screw with everyone who knew her. Just by her brash upfront personality. She was not very nice and this is found out throughout the book. The one person she cared for most, her sister, she even was rude towards behind her back.

But maybe this was just an age gap of 10 years between siblings. Also, Claire had a major issue that was never addressed by the parents, outside just yelling at her to stop. The parents were obsessed with Alison, and treated Claire like the spare child.

What I liked- I thought the insight chapter insights from the guests effected by Alison’s death really added to the story. Also- the recorded diary tapes!
